Our preprint is out! Q4ddPCR is a 4-target ddPCR assay for high-resolution HIV reservoir profiling validated on proviral sequences and across multiple cohorts. It supports HIV cure trials where precision matters. Thanks to Rachel Scheck, Brad Jones & all co-authors. www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

IAS 2025 has officially kicked off in Kigali. The opening session was very moving and powerful reminder of what’s at stake. Strong (mostly female) voices from across the HIV response, and a powerful community protest (“We will not be erased”) resonated deeply.

We are currently recruiting a bioinformatics/computational biology postdoc to join the infrastructure project of a newly funded large research consortium (SFB-TRR) on Circadian Medicine between Charité - Universitätsmedizin Berlin and Universität zu Lübeck ⌚ ⏰ ⏱️ 🕰️ !

When governments stop funding clinical guidelines, who will step in? Guideline support by independent governmental scientific bodies aims to ensure high quality & independence from commercial interests. These recommendations provide critical guidance for health care providers worldwide. #HIV #NIH

Wow! Very interesting decision by @nature.com towards transparent peer review. Also preparing emotionally for the 20-page rebuttals ahead! ☺️

AIDS Memorial Quilt on display October 11-13 1996 on the National Mall in Washington D.C. Let us never forget.

Our group was recognized as one of the “Best Research Environments of 2024” by @jungeakademie.bsky.social and Volkswagenstiftung. We didn’t get lucky in the raffle for the prize money but we’re proud of the recognition and even more proud of team Gaebler Lab that made it possible!🙏🎊👏🎉

Honored that our lab made the shortlist for Best Research Environment. Awesome initiative by Junge Akademie and proud of the incredible Gaebler Lab team and the entire Infectious Disease Department at Charité/BIH that makes this place what it is! 👏 @libuchauer.bsky.social @sanderlab.bsky.social

It was such a delight to host Dr. Rochelle P. #Walensky, former director of the CDC during the COVID crisis at #Charité Berlin. Thank you for sharing inspiring lessons and personal insights with the Charité community. We all need to speak up for #HealthEquity and Evidence-based health policies.

"We condemn the censoring of science!". Powerful opening words from Diane Havlir for #croi2025 "Young researchers, we have your back. Community, we are with you" Hell yes!!!

A powerful talk by Rebecca Denison, founder of WORLD and woman living with HIV. We can't go back to the days without treatment access. Silence is death. And courage is a decision. The hall erupted in a standing ovation. #CROI2025

🚨 Drastic cuts to global health funding are leaving millions without essential HIV services. Young people, key populations, and marginalized communities are being abandoned. Millions are at risk. Act now, save lives! Learn more: 🔗 bit.ly/41CDnrD #ZeroDiscrimination

“Instead of a careful handover, we’re being pushed off a cliff,” said Kate Rees, an epidemiologist with South Africa’s Anova Health Institute, which has also seen its funding terminated. Story on the devastating cuts to the HIV/AIDS field by my colleague @cohenjon.bsky.social 🧪 #IDsky

Thank you to Stiftung Charité for featuring me and my group in the FACES interview series! www.stiftung-charite.de/en/news-in-d...

Pretty much

In den USA kündigt das #NIH massive Kürzungen für Forschungseinrichtungen an. Das wird das führende Innovationsökosystem der Welt, dessen Motor staatlich finanzierte Spitzenforschung ist, nachhaltig schwächen, mit Folgen auch für Europa. 1/2

Two weeks ago, we proudly showed the German Bundestag - this imperfect yet fundamental symbol of democracy - to friends from New York. I never could have imagined the scenes that unfolded there today. We (will) remember! 🇪🇺

Get a first look at the exciting IAS 2025 speaker lineup! Join us this July in Kigali!

Come join us in Kigali for IAS 2025! Abstract submission is closing soon!

HIV - Heilung in Sicht? Sehr informativer und differenzierter Artikel in der @taz.de über die Fortschritte und Herausforderungen in der HIV-Forschung & Therapie und der Lange Weg zur Heilung. @cgaebler.bsky.social gibt spannende Einblicke in seine Forschung an der Klinik f. Infektiologie #Charité

Mein neuer Artikel über das Team von @cgaebler.bsky.social, das an der Berliner Charité auf der Suche nach einer HIV-Heilung ist. So weit weg sind wir davon nicht entfernt. Schön, manchmal auch an optimistischen Geschichten zu arbeiten.
